The price surprised me, and this is by far a more enterprise-grade printer. But I don't know if I am even sold on the idea.
I've always wanted a #Idex printer, mostly for water soluble supports or even doing the PETG-PLA trick #Modbot has suggested before. But with the relative price of the #Bambulab #AMS, isn't it just better to get that? Because here you are now just limited to 2 colors, and the AMS could one day be upgraded and also easily extended.
So I wonder if Idex will be killed before it even went big ever? #SnapMaker are leaders in the space, and technically, this isn't an Idex because the nozzles are on the same head.
If creality wants this to be successful in the target group they are pricing it at, their software needs to improve.
I think most people can admit that similar to Apple, the thing which makes the BambuLab printers so good is the software and build quality.

I agree, but one thing to note is, #Marlin is big, and you are big. You have a say and some power behind your voice, but smaller #FOSS developers still suffer.
One thing that disgusts me is 3D printing companies just actually doing this.
In the popular series "Blue Bloods", Frank Regan said that it is so disgusting when a cop commits a crime, because cops should not be kept at the same standard as other people, but at a higher standard.
Now we have companies coming in here. Like #SnapMaker, saying they love #opensource and they want you to create what you want at home and I would put money on it that would attempt a rip-off of #Printables or #Thingiverse in the future for "open-source", but then they do stuff like this.
I honestly didn't know this about them. I was actually interested in buying their #IDEX printer.
I do manual coloe changes by issuing M600 on my printer and then switching the filament and then switching the filament and pushing it through to do a manual purge. But this isn't really comforable or viable.
So I only use it for the first or last few layers to have a different face color or text color, but other than that, it would just be frustrating.
I would love a #IDEX printer for soluable support. Color changes are too wasteful for me, and I don't actually have the need for it because all of my parts are mostly functional.
With a #PrusaXL, you'll still need to have purges if I understand correctly because it still only has a single nozzle and then the #PrusaMMU.
If you want a #IDEX, #SnapMaker is currently the leader in the space.
If you only use 2 colors, then a #IDEX printer is the only solution. It would allow you to have two separate heads with two separate hotends and filaments. Thus, no purging is required.
Unfortunately, that's the best solution, as multi-material through a single nozzle will always result in this.
Personally, for me, the waste is too much for 3D printing, and I would rather use a #IDEX printer to print soluable supports and have better quality.
L’#Angola potenzia la sua flotta militare grazie agli #Emirati e alle aziende d'armi italiane. Un miliardo di euro per tre corvette. Ammonta a tanto il contratto firmato ad Abu Dhabi in occasione della recente kermesse dei sistemi d’arma #IDEX 2023. http://antoniomazzeoblog.blogspot.com/2023/03/langola-potenzia-la-sua-flotta-militare.html
In a rare setting, for the 1st time since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, both Russian and Ukrainian companies are exhibiting their weapons in close proximity to each other at the #IDEX and NAVDEX exhibitions. Kamikaze drones showed by both. https://www.defensenews.com/global/mideast-africa/2023/02/20/russia-ukraine-showcase-loitering-munitions-at-idex-arms-fair/

Define « moderne » et « agile » 🙃
This #benchy is a bit different from most...
Currently printing a custom #idex printhead offset calibration model for my recently acquired sovol Sv04.
Bit of a fiddly machine to set up and came with a warped bed. However a bit of manual gcoding to get the probe offset without the mesh leveling getting in the way and some post-it notes under the magnetic bed and it is doing alright.
For the cost it is great. Have sent support a request for help with the warped bed and #octoprint server still to come
Need to get it off the floor as well!
